Improving your CAM maintenance management program by leveraging proven operations management best practices.
Presented by:
Steven Yniguez, Grant Thornton LLP
Abstract:
Capital Asset Management (CAM) is a critical part of any asset intensive organization. Companies looking to survive in difficult times and thrive in a competitive landscape lean on Continuous Improvement (CI) efforts to gain a competitive advantage. So what CI projects do you have planned for your CAM team? Unfortunately, most maintenance environments fail to recognize how to leverage CI projects to their CAM program. Simply put, they are “too busy” focusing on doing more with less. CAM should no longer sit in the shadows of continuous improvement. In this session we will focus on defining some key industry best practices and discuss how they can be applied to your E1 CAM efforts to improve your overall maintenance performance. This session promises to be both fun and informative!

How to become an ERP-centric enterprise. The roadmap of a fast growing multinational company which has chosen jDE as the base for its operating model review
Presented by:
Massimiliano Bartolozzi, Lucart Group
Abstract:
Lucart group is running JDE since 2012.
In 2019 the group started a series of acquisitions which brought the company from a 5 plants, 470M€, 1200 employees, Italian company, to the current 12 plants, 730M€ 1900 employees multinational group.
Within the group strategic plan the CIO had to develop the enterprise digital roadmap and the tools that were going to support the growth.
Decision was made to confirm JDE as the pillar of the future business process re-engineering effort and a refresh strategy was developed in 3 steps:
1- Replatform JDE from AS400 to Windows/SQL using a private cloud environment.
2- Technical and functional Upgrade of JDE from 9.0 to 9.2 , moving from 620 days of customizations to the current 380 days adopting standard functionalities. To ensure the success of this complex upgrade, Lucart group leveraged the skills of Oracle ACS (Paul Hall).
3- Upskill the IT team on new JDE capabilities (orchestrator, UX, OCI, others) through a “Fridays for learning” initiative.
In parallel, Lucart group started and “operating model review” with one of the big 5, which resulted in a process re-engineering roadmap of 23 initiatives to be completed within 3 years. Again, JDE was chosen as the vehicle to implement and secure the new business processes, and a team of local and international partners (Atlantic, GN Techonomy, Quistor and Steltix) was selected to enable the business transformation through JDE.
While the roadmap is still executing, Lucart continued its best-in-class tools adoption strategy with Oracle HCM in the cloud; in 2024 a new strategic plan will be developed.
In this presentation you will learn why Lucart group decided to bet on JDE for its ERP-centric strategy, why the Oracle – JDE ecosystem has been key for the successful development of this ambitious program, and how the partnership between IT and business was set up to ensure commons goals.

Journey to keeping JDE Instance code current with latest POD architecture enhancements..
Presented by:
Mitesh Shah, Edwards Lifesciences
Kishore Sakthi Kumar Dhanapal, Edwards Lifesciences
Abstract:
Summary: We are a Global Medical device company with 7 manufacturing locations and 15+ distribution locations worldwide. We have a sizeable JD Edwards user base of 4900 plus users using all modules Finance, Distribution, Manufacturing in addition to Supplier Portal and Customer Portal applications. Our JD Edwards instance involves customizations, localization, multiple languages, bolt-ons and countries with multiple currencies. We initiated our journey to upgrade our JDE instance in 2022 from base application release 9.2 (32-bit) to JDE application release R22 (64-bit) with tools release 9.2.5.3 to R23 (9.7.2.2) and completed the upgrade in less than 12 months.
Challenges:
1. How to stay code current with a highly customized JDE ERP system: All customizations needed to be retrofitted while our business-critical projects were in flight and never stopped. That meant we did not have the privilege to freeze our code set.
2. How to reduce our monthly downtime during code deployments: One of the challenges we faced with our old system was the monthly downtime required during project deployments. As we are a global company with presence all over the globe, we have business processes running 24×7, which means any downtime to the JDE system has a direct impact to our business processes.
Solution: Journey to keep our JDE Instance code current and achieve zero downtime deployments:
1. Used out of the box tools and developed a few of our own to deploy smart retrofit processes, while releasing new capabilities (monthly production releases) and keep code current.
2. Implemented POD architecture which helped us achieve Zero Downtime Deployments. Key to successful Upgrade to 64-bit JDE.

Why Real-time Oracle JD Edwards(JDE) Integration Matters with AP Automation
Presented by:
Joel Halvorson, IntelliChief
Abstract:
It is no surprise that many companies’ A/P processes are still manual (or mostly manual) and paper-intensive, resulting in major economic consequences for the bottom line. Without a real-time integration with Oracle JD Edwards(JDE), companies struggle with the challenges of receiving invoices, constantly checking their ERP to see if the goods have been received, matching them against purchase orders (POs) and coding the appropriate general ledger (GL). The lack of an integrated ERP with intelligent AP automation ultimately leads to bigger business challenges associated with accruals for financial closing and lack of visibility into corporate spending. Sometimes it just comes down to the hard and soft dollars – without a deep integration to JDE, the average time* to process an invoice is 10.9 days and costs $10.18 to process a single invoice.
With this deep integration to JDE, you should be able to extract the relevant data from your A/P process and connect it with JDE to speed up invoice processing and get a better handle on your corporate spend and fluctuating cash position. Companies can significantly cut their costs and process invoices faster by more than 80+%. According to Ardent Partners, best-in-class organizations leverage the power of intelligent AP automation and improve efficiency and productivity with 2.2 times higher rate of straight-through processing (STP) and a 60% lower invoice exception rate with advanced manual processing tools.
As a result of the deep integration with JDE, you will be able to:
• Minimize the time and effort it takes to process invoices
• Eliminate manual data entry and associated errors
• Avoid rework from having to rekey or reprocess invoices
• Simplify exception processing when invoices aren’t matched to POs or aren’t coded correctly
• Improve vendor relationships
• Optimize payment terms
• Increase visibility throughout the A/P process

30 Companies in 7 Months – Learn How Phibro Achieved a Complete Security Overhaul
Presented by:
Mary Kay Christophersen, Phibro Animal Health Corporation
Abstract:
Security roles at Phibro Animal Health Corporation were over 10 years old and had not been strategically managed during this time. Like so many JDE implementations, security was completed quickly towards the end of the projects. As a result, there were many security elements that did not adhere to standard best practices. The situation was resulting in significant effort by the security team to manage records at a user level, business disruption, lost productivity, and compliance issues that surfaced in their audit findings.
This session will walk through how they were able to easily design the security roles they needed, complete a successful testing phase, and then implement that solution across 30 companies, reduce organizational risk and consequently was able to spend much less time managing security because of a much more effective security model!

Abstract:
Trek upgraded from JDE 9.1 to 9.2 back in 2018. Since then, they’ve stayed current on the tools and technology side but have fallen behind on the application side. With 64-bit becoming a requirement for future tools releases past 9.2.5, Trek decided to embark on an application upgrade to not only get code-current but to convert to 64-bit processing.
The project commenced in Jan of 2023. The first major milestone was to get code current. For Trek, it meant upgrading from UN2 to UN7. Following the upgrade to UN7, Trek migrated to 64-bit processing.

EnterpriseOne Search – an alternative to enhancing user inquiries
Presented by:
Bernadette Dannemiller, Terillium, Inc.
Abstract:
How can I search for a customer address record based on their city, state and zip? How can I narrow down my item lookup in purchase order entry to only view items for my specific vendor? The answer used to be “you can’t without an enhancement” – there were some workarounds, but nothing that completely met the business need. And then along came EnterpriseOne Search! This UDO allows custom searches to be built, including over multiple business views or tables, so that you can provide lookups on the fields that the users need, display only the data that is useful, and allow selection of records directly from the search. The E1 Search can be used in almost any application or functional area – this session will be based in Distribution applications, but that’s a limitation of the time we have and not the tool itself!

Transformation: The rise of enterprise automation…finally a movie that achieves ROI
Presented by:
Greg Davis, Grant Thornton LLP
A.J. Schifano, Oracle America, Inc
Seth Chaikin, Grant Thornton LLP
Abstract:
Are you among the many customers who are running JD Edwards but NOT taking advantage of all its capabilities? Perhaps the overall experience of your end users and your customers is not what it could be, and perhaps there are opportunities to realize an even better ROI from the system you already own. Companies can truly transform their business through JD Edwards. Transformation extends much further than process automation. True benefits are achieved through holistic enterprise transformation. Often, companies focus on the wrong things when trying to achieve “digital transformation” or systems and capability “modernization”. Enterprise transformation is more impactful and is achieved when companies are focused around 3 things: 1) Operational efficiencies (not just process automation). 2) Identification of new and/or alternative revenue models. 3) Improved customer and user experience. While process automation provides value to a specific process, more widespread, enterprise automation yields better processes and better data, not only at the individual transaction level, but also in aggregate. Aggregated data yields better analytics, which provides clearer insight, which in turn sparks innovation.

How Morgan Olson Customers Rely on JD Edwards Data and Processes for Ordering Parts
Presented by:
Fermin Rodriguez, SmarterCommerce
Ben Cole, Morgan Olson
Abstract:
For Morgan Olson Parts (MOP), providing customers 24/7 access to a catalog of 8500+ replacement parts for their installed base of Morgan Olson walk-in step vans is critical to keep their customers’ (e.g. UPS, FedEx) fleet on the road and delivering. However, to deliver accurate replacement part information requires complete traceability for each manufactured step van and its often customer-specific specifications. With JD Edwards, MOP is able to track a unit’s manufactured bill of materials to the end vehicle identification number (VIN) and to properly tag serviceable parts for future replacement. Building on this ERP foundation, MOP set out to digitally transform their parts ordering process by implementing an ecommerce webstore (www.morganolsonparts.com). The combined webstore and JD Edwards solution provides customers with VIN search capabilities to view available parts by van assembly so they can pinpoint the exact part required for the van repair. In addition, MOP has provided customers access to view visual parts diagrams, place orders, manage accounts and retrieve service related documents on a 24/7 basis over the web with real-time pricing, inventory, and account specific information.

Doug Palaske, K-Rise Systems, Inc.
Jeremy Stowe, K-Rise Systems, Inc.
Abstract:
Case study demonstration / review of the custom applications created to replace traditional scanning software. Trisha Muir, Michelman Director of ERP long realized status quo batch work order processing had to be improved. One primary reason was the need to improve visibility to the necessary PPE, hazards and process instructions before starting to manufacture a batch and capturing the acknowledgement from the operator. Michelman was able to add validations within the process to minimize waste, improve safety metrics, and reduce off-spec batches resulting in cost savings. Sustainability is one of Michelman’s core values; digitizing the paper work order helps them to achieve their goal of reducing the use of paper globally.
Functionality includes full Work Order Edit of: Parts List, Process Instructions & Quality Tests with improved automation of Machine/Labor hours and Quality test data. Other functional elements include Audit, Inventory Look-up, Inventory Transfer, enhanced Media Object Integration and the ability to store “Comments” and “Versioning” of Media Object revisions.
Demo review will show User Role setup/permissions for Chemists, Quality, Operators, and Supervisor with dashboards associated to each role. Trisha will also review Michelman business case.

Order Promising Configuration Options in JD Edwards
Presented by:
Craig Davied, Grant Thornton LLP
Abstract:
Almost every MFG / distribution company faces challenges to determine the dates to promise products to their customers. Since it is very expensive to pay for additional storage for finish good (FG) inventory, most companies need to accurately estimate the lead times in order to procure raw materials, manufacture FG products, as well as transfer them to their distribution centers in order to ship and/or deliver them to their customers when necessary.
There are numerous configuration options available in JD Edwards which can impact when FG products will be available to distribute to customers, but which are important for your business? As well, once identified, how should they be configured? Overall, how can I correctly design my supply chain modules in JDE in order to be as efficient as possible with my supply chain processes, without impacting my promise dates to my customers?
Join us as we discuss some of the key MFG and distribution functionality available within JD Edwards related to the supply chain planning and execution processes which can play a role in the dates that FG inventory will be available to ship and/or delivery to customers.

Adam Rispens, Tyndale House Publishers
Karen Riner, Tyndale House Publishers
Abstract:
After being on JDE for a few years our data set was growing, and performance was starting to decline – it was time to look at archiving data! We enlisted the help of a JDE integrated tool called Purge-It! This tool allows us to archive the data from JDE from within JDE. Their applications and processes use the JDE interface and structure. As we embarked on this journey it helped us to discover process issues that needed to be addressed as well as some data issues that needed to be cleaned up.
Purge-It! Has standard archiving setups for our main JDE modules such as Sales Order, Procurement, Inventory, Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, and General Ledger. Their custom module allows us to create our own archiving routines for suggestions, shipments, sales ledger, and EDI. We were able to fully automate the archive process by making use of date offsets and setting the jobs to run on our JAMS job scheduler. All of the archived data is still viewable from JDE if we need it too. We have gained cleaner data and a lot of performance improvements!

Landed Cost Automation using Orchestrator saves us thousands of dollars per year!
Presented by:
Karen Riner, Tyndale House Publishers
Adam Rispens, Tyndale House Publishers
Abstract:
No Joke! We discovered an issue in our receiving process that was literally costing us thousands of dollars. Many Landed Cost entries were being missed! As a book publisher, we have quite a bit of landed cost that needs to be added for things like Freight, Creative costs, components, Paper, and Signature blocks. We did a review of last year and the total unit costs missed were sometimes upwards of thousands of dollars per title! So, we needed a good solution – and fast!
In this session we will walk through how we solved our issue of the missing landed costs. We created an Orchestration that can read the landed cost lines on the Purchase Orders and once the product is received and put in stock it will automatically apply the landed costs. Creating this orchestration was a bit complex in that we had to figure out how to collect the proper category from the PO line as well as do some calculations based on the actual number of units received. So this resulted in a set of 3 orchestrations running in a sequence – but they handle it all! We only need to review exceptions. We also included notifications for the POs that were successfully completed and another if there was an issue.
No more watchlists getting ignored or Landed Costs forgotten! Unit costs are kept updated and we are saving thousands!

How Tyndale Automated drop ship and direct fulfillment Order processing using Orchestrator, customization, EDI and other tools.
Presented by:
Adam Rispens, Tyndale House Publishers
Karen Riner, Tyndale House Publishers
Abstract:
Direct fulfillment orders for one of our largest customers was a very manual process from order intake through shipping and ASN. Each customer has unique requirements for document branding and lableing of the orders. Another Brainstorming opportunity for us!! In the end we came up with a fast, efficient way to input, process and ship the orders – which automated everything – aside from putting the book in the box!
In this session we will walk through how we accomplished the automation by switching the customer to EDI, adding a customization to sales order entry for branding options, automating the order allocation, using an Orchestration to pack the orders in JDE, producing the proper custom labels and packing slips with the alternate company Logo (Branding). We then use Power Automate to ship the orders via Nexxio and a Job scheduler (JAMS) to automate ASN generation. For another Customer that couldn’t do EDI, we also created an Orchestration for the order entry.
Now we are processing direct fulfillment and drop ship orders at lightning speed!

Continuous Adoption: Plan, Protect & Adopt
Presented by:
Darwin Thangappan, ASIR Inc.
Zhenya Kirueskhkin-Stepanoff, ASIR Inc
Abstract:
Continuous adoption is not possible without regression testing. Regression testing gets complex when production releases needs to happen often.
Regression testing is a critical aspect of software testing that aims to verify that existing functionality remains intact after changes or updates are made to the software. Manual regression testing can be time-consuming and resource-intensive, especially when repeated frequently or across multiple versions of the software. Test automation is an effective approach to address these challenges and achieve continuous regression testing adoption.
Staying code current with Release 23, defintely needs a regression testing strategy with test automation. we recommend the plan, protect & adopt strategy in this session.

Fixed Assets Depreciation in JDE changing methods without customization
Presented by:
Craig Hill, C&A Technology LLC
Abstract:
Although the JD Edwards Fixed Assets system provides a wide range of standard depreciation methods, there might be a need for specific depreciation algorithms other than those provided with the standard depreciation methods.
For example, to help small businesses, owners can claim their first-year bonus depreciation in qualifying personal property used for business purposes. Using bonus depreciation, they can deduct a certain percentage of the cost of an asset in the first year it was purchased, and the remaining cost can be deducted over several years using regular depreciation.

JDE Demand Supply Execution (DSE) to Manage Requirements for Shipment and Production Schedules betwe
Presented by:
Craig Hill, C&A Technology LLC
Abstract:
Firm or planned demand requirements enable you to receive, interpret, or validate, net order information for shipments, and to automatically communicate shipment details to the supplier or customer. The system interprets and receives information using EDI documents that are transmitted from customers to suppliers, and then populates the appropriate demand scheduling tables to create records within sales orders, and forecasts. Forecasted schedules are transmitted from the manufacturer or distributor to the supplier to cover a future period and are formatted as a series of year-to-date cumulative totals. You can use this information for forecasting and planning when ordering parts and materials in high volume supply chains

Fond du Lac Case Study: The Best of Both Worlds with Hybrid Cloud & JDE
Presented by:
Dean Matvey, Fond du Lac Reservation
Mike Hoskin, Denovo
Abstract:
The advancement of technology is becoming as inevitable as death and taxes. Aging infrastructure and systems can often leave organizations stuck in the mud as their competition moves forward. As a result, most Oracle JDE customers are all faced with, and at least considering, the move to cloud applications. When, how, what applications, and whether they should be making the move to cloud applications at all, are top of mind. Many customers have adopted a functional hybrid approach. One of the most common of these functional areas has been in Human Capital Management (HCM). In this session, we will cover the approach used by FDL to assess how functional requirements could be supported by capabilities within both JDE and Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications (OFCA). In this hybrid approach, data must be shared between both JDE and OFCA and processes adapted to accommodate both solutions and deliver the best of both worlds to FDL.

Practical Approach to Providing Capable to Promise at Sales Order Entry Time
Presented by:
Will Haig, C&A Technology LLC
Abstract:
Although you can purchase Oracle’s Global Order Promising software, we developed a more cost effective approach to proving prospects and customers with capable to promise information at sales order entry time. Everyone knows JDE provides available to promise information. However, if you are make to order, or you don’t have product in stock at the moment, how do you tell a prospect or customer what when you are capable of promising product, without just quoting standard lead times. Standard lead times are usually longer than what you can really do. We developed a way to look at cumulative manufacturing and purchase lead times, capacities, and quantities on hand of component parts to give customer service people more accurate dates to promise product to customers. This is helping turn prospects into customers and keep existing customers. And we improved the ability to ship on time.

Abstract:
In this presentation, we will explore the world of e-invoicing and its significant impact on B2B commerce. Attendees will gain valuable insights into e-invoicing, its differentiation from AP automation, its global adoption, and its implementation using JD Edwards. We will also examine the business benefits of e-invoicing and present a case study showcasing the successful integration of e-invoicing within JD Edwards using Steltix’s AR-AP e-invoicing solution.
Currently, even the most advanced “automated” invoice processes are still considered manual and vulnerable to fraudulent claims. Paper invoices or PDFs are generated and sent via email, FTP, or postal service, requiring sorting, scanning, and manual data entry for matching and payment evaluation.
E-invoicing revolutionizes this process by enabling the direct electronic exchange of structured invoices between supplier and customer ERP/Finance Systems. No more PDFs, emails, or OCR; e-invoicing ensures a touchless experience where invoices are transmitted securely through the Peppol Network.
Governments worldwide are mandating e-invoicing for B2B commerce and internal departmental processes due to its efficiency in invoice processing and payment. The benefits of e-invoicing are numerous:
– Cost and Time Savings
– Fraud Prevention
– Improved Accuracy and Efficiency
– Enhanced Productivity and Workflow
– Faster Payments
– Integration and Data Insights
– Compliance and Audit Trail
– Environmental Sustainability

Hidden in Plain Sight: A punch list of JDE EnterpriseOne tips and tricks I was the last person to discover
Presented by:
Chris Papineau, Terillium, Inc.
Abstract:
JDEdwards EnterpriseOne is a complex product and CNC is niche which has grown over the past 28 years or so into an enormous plant named Audrey which seems to be saying “Feed me!” Any CNC can get caught up in these tentacles and see their install or upgrade grind to a halt over numerous single point failures, nuances, and tribal knowledge items. This session will document an eclectic assortment some of these items, relevant to installs, upgrades, and configuration. Included and JAS server tweaks, fixes to back-end Enterprise server problems, Configurator UXone issues, and useful SQL solutions to JDE conundrums. This is a surface level survey of useful roadblock eliminators rather than an open heart surgery session into bare metal details.

Why Real-time Oracle JD Edwards(JDE) Integration Matters with AP Automation
Presented by:
Joel Halvorson, IntelliChief
Abstract:
It is no surprise that many companies’ A/P processes are still manual (or mostly manual) and paper-intensive, resulting in major economic consequences for the bottom line. Without a real-time integration with Oracle JD Edwards(JDE), companies struggle with the challenges of receiving invoices, constantly checking their ERP to see if the goods have been received, matching them against purchase orders (POs) and coding the appropriate general ledger (GL). The lack of an integrated ERP with intelligent AP automation ultimately leads to bigger business challenges associated with accruals for financial closing and lack of visibility into corporate spending. Sometimes it just comes down to the hard and soft dollars – without a deep integration to JDE, the average time* to process an invoice is 10.9 days and costs $10.18 to process a single invoice.
With this deep integration to JDE, you should be able to extract the relevant data from your A/P process and connect it with JDE to speed up invoice processing and get a better handle on your corporate spend and fluctuating cash position. Companies can significantly cut their costs and process invoices faster by more than 80+%. According to Ardent Partners, best-in-class organizations leverage the power of intelligent AP automation and improve efficiency and productivity with 2.2 times higher rate of straight-through processing (STP) and a 60% lower invoice exception rate with advanced manual processing tools.
As a result of the deep integration with JDE, you will be able to:
• Minimize the time and effort it takes to process invoices
• Eliminate manual data entry and associated errors
• Avoid rework from having to rekey or reprocess invoices
• Simplify exception processing when invoices aren’t matched to POs or aren’t coded correctly
• Improve vendor relationships
• Optimize payment terms
• Increase visibility throughout the A/P process

Craig Kelly, Syntax Systems USA, LP
Abstract:
Due to multiple acquisitions that have been made, Silgan has over 20 different ERPs (Including JD Edwards and EBS) within its enterprise portfolio of applications, creating challenges to viewing global performance. Any global views of data had to be manually extracted & created, did not meet the cadence that the business required to run the business optimally, and ultimately provided limited visibility to the business as a whole.
Silgan decided to implement a Global Data Lake to consolidate data from all of their ERPs. In doing so, they were able to obtain critical global sales and purchasing KPIs in a timely manner, provide automation to their international tax processing, and gain efficiencies in the pricing of their finished goods.
Join Will Cokeley, Vice President of Business Technology at Silgan, and Craig Kelly, Vice President of Analytics at Syntax to learn how Silgan implemented a global data lake and benefit from multiple use cases.

Pernod Ricard JD Edwards Code Current and Cloud Strategy
Presented by:
Janusz Wisniewski, Wyborowa
Adam Kowalski, Wyborowa
Abstract:
JD Edwards in Pernod Ricard is implemented in several countries. Each implementation was done separately per country/region and with a lot of customizations. Few years ago Pernod Ricard started introducing global platforms (financial reporting, planning, product management) which are to be integrated with JD Edwards.
This requires unification and harmonization of processes and data but still with a local flavour.
The program called SPA started and part of the SPA is consolidation of Pernod Ricard companies into one cloud installation. There are at the moment 7 countries using the global JDE platform and more on the way.
The presentation will explain background, code current strategy, integration strategy, de-customization and smart customisation approach. Orchestrations and UDOs usage.
Besides success the presentation will also show the areas of concern and some failures.
The presentation will also show where BSSV integration wins over Orchestrations.
Our Cloud platform is code curent and we follow JDE Releases every 6 months. Release 22 was implemented within 1 month and Release 23 implemented during January-February 2023 within 6 weeks. Only two retrofits done :-).

JDE Meets ML: Unlocking Lower Inventory Levels and Higher Customer Satisfaction with ML Generated Demand Forecasts
Presented by:
Craig Kelly, Syntax Systems USA, LP
Mahesh Sathenjeri, Syntax Systems USA, LP
Abstract:
More accurate demand forecasts allow companies to optimize their inventory levels while maximizing customer satisfaction. Legacy JD Edwards demand forecasting is limited to data that resides within the customer’s instance of JDE while relying on dated algorithms, resulting in suboptimal forecast accuracy. But now some options exist where JD Edwards’ data can be combined with other sources (both internal and external to the business) and leveraged to train ML-based models to generate accurate forecasts which can then be orchestrated back into JDE. The resulting effect allows JDE to run a more efficient MRP process, ultimately increasing margins for the company.
Come learn more about the types of data that can easily be combined with your sales history and leveraged with advanced ML that can transform your business using a data-driven landscape.
